Violette managed to stay married to Elijah for more than four years; there was definitely something special about her.
Plus, Sarah had heard her name when she was abroad.
She was also a student of Dr. Mitchell and had published several decent papers.
However, after graduation, she was nowhere to be found.
She didn't work in any major hospitals, nor did she work in the medical field.
What good was extensive theoretical knowledge without clinical experience?
Why else would Elijah not have her treat Makayla?
Evening.
Silverleaf Ridge.
Albina looked at the two children and wondered, "Why aren't you two eating?"
Rita with her cheeks puffed out, asked, "When is mom coming back?"
Albina: "She'll be back when she's done. I don't know when that will be."
Rita: "Is she trying to save Makayla?"
Albina: "Yes. Don't worry, Makayla will be fine."
At this point, Ian grumbled, "Makayla, troublemaker!"
"You're the one who brought Makayla home, why are you suddenly talking about her like this?" Albina reached out and touched his head.
"She's in cahoots with Elijah!"
Albina didn't expect him to know this.
"Ian, this is an adult issue, you shouldn't worry. Makayla was born with brain development issues, what did she do wrong? If anyone's to blame, it's Elijah." Albina always felt sorry for Makayla.
Makayla was no different from a three-year-old girl.
Ian felt more guilty than anything.
If he had known about mom's relationship with Elijah, or Elijah's relationship with Makayla sooner, he would never have brought Makayla home!
Mom must be feeling terrible.
Kaleb, who was in his room, came out when he heard his uncle's roar.
"Uncle, you were looking for me?" Kaleb had been jilted; he was in a slump these days and was just playing video games at home.
Whack!
Kaleb's head was knocked to the side
, and his cellphone fell to the floor!
"You're the hacker who attacked Angela International Institute? You've got some nerve!" Elijah roared in anger, "Hand over Makayla! If anything happens to her, I'll make sure you have no place to be buried!"
Kaleb was stunned.
"Elijah, what hacker? Kaleb couldn't possibly be a hacker, right? You know him, he's useless!" Travis held Elijah back, fearing that he would lash out again and endanger their son's life.
Elijah ordered his men to confiscate all of Kaleb's notebooks and cellphones for inspection!
Two hours later, they found something on Kaleb's phone.
"I don't know how my phone got a virus. I never let anyone else use my phone... except I did lend it to a little girl the day before yesterday!" Kaleb cried, "The little girl is not even five, surely she couldn't have infected my phone, could she?"
